Who is Sensational Beauty?
Marcia Lai
Marcia Lia is the owner operator of Sensational Beauty. Marcia has a background in Medicine and decided in 1994 that her passion was health, wellbeing and looking great.

So after exhausting research she found a very reputable and highly regarded College right here in Collins Street Melbourne > The Elly Lukas Beauty Therapy Training College. She immediately enrolled and completed her training in 1996. At the Celebration event at the conclusion of the course she was presented with 3 Awards.
The Excellence on Biology Award.

Experience and Skills
After qualifying, Marcia went on to work in numerous Salons in the inner suburbs of Melbourne and ended up working and managing a Beauty Salon in Greensborough, the famous Tom Lane Pharmacy. Later in the year of 1999 she then decided to open her own business, hence the conception of Sensational Beauty. Since then her skills have escalated and she is determined to reach excellence in all areas of the beauty industry, by developing precise, consistent and time efficient practices.
Her Beauty Salon located at 760 High Street Thornbury was opened late 2008 and has since been operating at this location to the present day.
